First snow of winter

I'm walking hills and valleys

This fucking mist

These cliffs are just showing off
[Chorus]

Then the body memory kicks in

I mime my home mountains

The moss that I'm made of

I redeem myself

I've been wrestling my fate

Will I accept my death

Or struggle claustrophobic?

Fought like a wolverine

With my     destiny

Refuse to accept what was meant to be

Unfathomable imagination

Gbmaj7 Ebm7
Surrender to future
[Verse 3]
Ebm7       Ab7             Ebm7

Like threading an ocean through a needle

Ebm7 Ab7        Ebm7
River through a keyhole

Can't fathom the grasp

Ebm7    Ab        Ebm
I can't grasp the fathom
[Chorus]
Ebm7         Gb          Ebm7
Then my body memory kicks in

My limbs and tongue take over

Like the ancestors before me

Show me the flow
[Verse 4]

My sexual D  N  A

Ebm          Ab Db Ebm
X-rays of my Kama Sutras

     Db Ab        Ebm
Summons different bodies

Compares spines and buttocks

    Ab
And back of necks
[Chorus]

It simply takes over

Bestiality

Ebm
I redeem my body
[Instrumental] Ebm Ebm7 Ebm Bbm B Ebm Ebdim Abm Bbm Db Ebm Fdim Bb [Verse 5]
Ebm      Ab     Ebm
I wasn't born urban

     Ebm    Ab     Ebm
Toxic doesn't agree with me

Ebm  Ab       Ebm  Ebm  Ab         Ebm
Love lured me here into a stagnant state

    Ebm      Ab       Ebm
My myths, my customs, ridiculed

Ebm   B     Ab    Ebm
Vacuum packed molecules
[Chorus]
Ebm7
Then my body memory kicks in

Ebm7
On this Brooklyn dance floor

Ebm7
Sweating with these rhythms

Ebm7        Cdim    Absus2
Rotate this matrix
[Verse 6]
Eb5
All trapped in legal harness

Eb5
Kafkaesque

Eb5
Farce like patriarchy

Eb5
Avoided to confront it
[Chorus]
Ebm
Then the body memory kicks in

Ebm
My warrior awakens

Ebm
My turn to defend

Ebm
Urban didn't tame me
[Outro]
Ebsus4
Then my body memory kicks in

Ebsus4
All bosoms and embraces

Ebsus4
Oral, anal entrances

Ebsus4
Enjoy the satisfaction

Ebsus4
If the other is growing
